Tree down on Simonton Bridge Road - proceed with caution
The rain Monday brought at least one tall tree closer to the very busy road called Simonton Bridge or sometimes Whitehall Road near the bridge to Athens-Clarke County. The dead tree split and made the absolute edge of the shoulder of the ridiculously narrow thoroughfare. Stay slow in this tornado watch weather we are having please and watch out for falling trees and other debris on the road, especially with kids getting off the buses right about now.
